Chapter 61: Do what you want
Carrying his beloved books on his back, the 'God of Knowledge' led by Gold walked briskly along the path in the woods.
For him, although he was a little reluctant to leave the Golden Domain, the thought that this also meant that he was away from that monster-like demigod, his mood couldn't help but improve.
He didn't want to be eaten.
The gaze that looked at him like food, he was very convinced.
"Where did such a monster come from?"
"I'm afraid even Egger 300 years ago can't compare, right?"
When I think of the 'hero' Iger 300 years ago, this 'God of Knowledge' can't help but feel melancholy.
He was sure of what had happened.
However, he had no way of knowing what was happening.
Even, the events of that year have been affecting him.
He can't absorb the power of faith to perfect himself like a real god, and can only slowly absorb violent emotions to continue himself.
And now, such means have also been cut off by that monster-like demigod.
However, thankfully, the strength he had accumulated before was enough for him to survive for a considerable amount of time, even for the gods.
Moreover, he believed that it would not be long before the monster-like demigod would leave Gold, and he would be able to return to his homeland.
If the other party helps him 'regain' the memories of the past, it will be even more unexpected.
Based on this premise, it is not impossible for him to become the other party's subordinate god.
At least......
The other party is strong enough.
For a 'pseudo-god' like him who doesn't have much combat power, it's really a good backer.
Countless books tell the 'God of Knowledge' what it means to make a trade-off.
Of course, that's after that!
Right now?
He didn't want to get involved in such a mess that could kill him at any moment.
From the first day of his birth, he understood how a god like him could survive.
Just like now.
As he remembered it, the 'God of Knowledge' bypassed one obstacle after another and came to a giant walnut tree.
Knock, knock!
"The owner of the walnut tree, please don't mind taking the liberty of visiting."
After a very rhythmic percussion, the 'God of Knowledge' greeted him with respect.
Not only did he greet him, but he also placed a book in his baggage on the raised roots of the walnut tree.
When he saw the rapid disappearance of the books, the 'God of Knowledge' couldn't help but smile.
You know, the owner of the walnut tree in front of you is the god of this dense forest.
It is the kind of true deity that can absorb the power of faith and perfect itself.
The other party blesses the creatures in the dense forest, and at the same time provides shelter for the good travelers, of course, not the free kind.
Silently, a door appeared in the huge walnut tree.
"Come in, old book."
An old voice came from inside.
The 'God of Knowledge' walked into it with a smile on his horse.
Inside the huge walnut tree is a circular room, with wooden tables and chairs, strings of unknown vines hanging from the roof, and a round window on the wall, which can clearly see the situation outside in the dense forest.
An old man with his beard dragged to the ground stood in the middle of the room.
Compared to the old man in a gray robe with a wrinkled face, the gray hair and beard of the 'God of Knowledge' looked very young.
"Long time no see, master of the walnut tree."
The 'God of Knowledge', who is called an old book, didn't mind anything, but greeted him with a smile.
"It's been one hundred and thirty years."
"The last time you came to see me, it was because you provoked the 'Night Visitor'."
"What about this time?"
The owner of the walnut tree asked, drooping his eyelids.
The other party, who was already full of wrinkles, looked like an old and dry tree bark after his eyelids drooped down, and the other party's whole person looked like an old tree that was about to die at any time.
"A demigod."
'The God of Knowledge' said truthfully.
The other party is a demigod, that's a fact.
He wasn't lying.
"Demigods?"
The owner of the walnut tree wrinkled and wriggled, and his tone was full of doubt.
"Hmm."
"Some powerful demigods."
The 'God of Knowledge' nodded and added.
"You're really getting less and less growing."
"As a god, you are afraid of a demigod?"
"You know, no matter how strong you are, you're just a demigod!"
The owner of the walnut tree snorted angrily.
Then the owner of the walnut tree was about to continue to say something, but at that moment a tremor appeared in the room.
"Huh?"
"I found it with your scent!"
The owner of the walnut tree was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
The other party turned around and looked at the 'God of Knowledge' with a nervous face and comforted: "I accepted your sacrifice, and I will naturally ensure your safety, rest assured ......"
Bang!
Before the words of comfort had been finished, the room shook again, and the shaking was continuous, and at the same time a dull sound echoed through the room.
The drooping vines began to sway from side to side.
It was as if the whole house was going to collapse.
The eyelids of the owner of the walnut tree fluttered with the swing of the vines.
"Do you really think I'm like an old book?"
With a slight anger in his words, the owner of the walnut tree stomped his foot.
Suddenly, the shaking disappeared.
The owner of the walnut tree smiled confidently.
He turned his head to look at the 'God of Knowledge'
"Sure enough, it's just a demigod...... Ahhh ”
"Damn it!"
"Loosen up! Let go of my feet! ”
Amidst the cries of pain, an invisible mouth appeared in the room at some point, biting the ankle of the owner of the walnut tree that had just been stamped.
Moreover, such a bite also carries some kind of sucking.
I saw that the ankle near the owner of the walnut tree quickly dried up.
And, the scope of drying up is getting bigger and bigger.
Click!
Without hesitation, the owner of the walnut tree broke his withered leg with a single punch.
He knew very well that if he went on like this, he was going to be sucked dry.
But the pain of the broken leg made him cry out again.
"Ahhh
With such a scream, the hanging vines quickly stretched and thickened, like whips to whip the invisible mouth.
But as soon as it reached his mouth, he was uprooted by the invisible mouth and sucked in the whole root.
Colorful spiders the size of a basin crawled out from under the floor and spewed poisonous filaments towards the invisible mouth.
Like the vines, the invisible mouth seems to be sucking noodles, and all the sucking and sucking goes into the mouth, and the colorful spider on the spider silk is like chewing balls, crunching and crunching in the invisible mouth, and the juice is flowing sideways.
The most eye-catching thing is a red and green frog the size of an index finger.
It appeared on the shoulder of the owner of the walnut tree, and it fluttered its cheeks and made a 'quack' sound.
The sound was loud, like thunder.
But that's just the first sound.
The second sound became faint.
It's not that it's not loud enough, but after being swallowed, it's blocked by the wall of the mouth, and the sound becomes smaller unconsciously.
The owner of the walnut tree no longer screamed.
His eyes widened, and the wrinkles on his face twitched.
And then......
He waved his hand.
The 'God of Knowledge' who had been stunned by the side disappeared.
There was a dizziness in front of him, and when the 'God of Knowledge' came back to his senses, he found himself beyond the dense forest.
"Master of the walnut tree, you are not trustworthy and have accepted my sacrifice......"
Syllable!
A book fell from the sky and smashed on the head of the 'God of Knowledge', causing his words to come to an abrupt end.
Of course, more importantly, he had already seen a black figure standing not far in front of him.
"Long time no see, Lord Ryan."
"It's really an honor to meet you."
"Do you have any orders?"
"I will be at your service!"
At that indifferent glance, the 'God of Knowledge' immediately fell to the ground and shouted loudly.
